XT 185 gr 45 FN bullet ...need load for titegroup powder load

I have been routinely reloading 45ACP  with XTreme 225 FN plated bullets using  4.5 grains of TiteGroup.  I target shoot these in my Glock 41  as well as  in  S&W Governor.  Bought  some 185 g r FN XTremes and looking for load advice for reloading for the same target training.  Currently find the   recoil and accuracy in the Gl 41 as  enjoyable.  The only data I find   from Hodgdon  is for  Hornady SWC's.  5.0 - 5.5 grs TG.  Any reason I should go lighter than 5.0  titgroup for tests of these  185 FN's?

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sorry, it’s not TiteGroup but I have done some experiments with Xtreme 185 FP and 4.3g of Clays.  4.3g at 1.19 OAL gave me a 20 shot average of 743fps out of my Ford Shooters 5” 1911.  Runs 100%, very flat shooting and accurate too w/a 13lb recoil spring.  Makes for a fun IDPA ESP or steel load.
